La Stoppa
Ageno Malvasia di Candia Blend
Emilia-Romagna, Italy
Firstly i love the whole approach they gave to what they do, the respect and adoration for their terroir and the belief that we are talking about an instrument to pass on the culture.
"Culture is the only good of humanity that divided between us all, instead of diminishing, will become greater" this sentence on the introduction of the wine gives a very good feeling about them and by meeting them repeatedly i know it being true.
The wine too is in line with all above.
A 90% Malvasia aromatica di Candia finished off with Ortrugo and Trebbiano macerated in 4000l oak barrels for 4 months that retains a fantastic freshness and has a sapid vein that's very unique.
It's more than intriguing, it's a glass you keep looking for. Very persistent flavour.
Stunning!!

La Stoppa gör det igen! Riktigt fylligt oranginovino, nÀstan pÄ grÀnsen till spritig lacknaftasmak men ligger precis pÄ rÀtt sida av grÀnsen. #tnwc

Still nervous after the long trip to Ukraine, but already incredible. Top orange wine, charged with potential. Honey, ginger, forgotten apple that oxidized, dried apricot, and dried medicinal herbs. Good acidity, powerful tannin. Definitely, a wine to buy by cases and drink occasionally to witness its development. By the way, this is my first Ageno of even vintage.
